Year 4: Fractions of a set of objects (1)
Click on the link below to watch the video tutorial about finding fractions of a set of objects. Learn how to use the bar model to find fractions of amounts.
Then, complete the worksheet below (Y4 Maths Wednesday). You could print it off and write on the worksheet, or write the answers on paper/exercise book, but remember to number your answers clearly so your parents can check you are correct.
Parents: I have also uploaded the answer sheet (Y4 MATHS ANSWERS) for you to refer to.
Year 5: Add Mixed numbers
Click on the link below to watch the video tutorial to learn about how to add mixed numbers.
Then complete the worksheet (Year 5 Maths Wednesday). You will need to use your knowledge of partitioning, equivalent fractions and how to convert improper fractions to mixed numbers.
English: Writing a setting description
Use the powerpoint below to find out today’s writing tasks.
You will need your map that you created yesterday, as you will be writing a setting description about that imaginary world. Think carefully about what you want the reader to picture in their heads.
Then get writing!
Remember:
- Organise your writing into paragraphs
- Choose the BEST vocabulary (adjectives, verbs, adverbs, similes, metaphors)
- Include the senses: what can you hear, see, smell, feel, taste.
- Make sure your sentences are varied and accurate.
- Check your punctuation. CAPITAL LETTERS and full stops are non-negotiable!
I have also included some word mats to help you (expanded noun phrases, fronted adverbials)
